Today marks my second month at Konecranes, and I’m excited to continue my dive in. I’ve spent the past few weeks visiting our Konecranes locations and meeting the team that makes our company so special. I just came back from an insightful trip to our India operations, where I had the privilege of visiting our Engineering and Knowledge Centre in Pune. The facility is located in India but has a key role in supporting Konecranes in innovation, product development, IT and supplier collaboration. From the innovative research projects at our Hyvinkää and Wetter locations to the dynamic energy in Pune, it’s clear that our strengths lie in our talented people and their passion for technology. Conversations with employees have given me valuable insights into our business and the unique challenges and opportunities we face. The industry is changing, but so are we. I also had the opportunity to visit our factory in Jejuri where we manufacture industrial cranes for India as well as for export. I was happy to experience the strong focus on safety that has resulted in more than 2500 consecutive days without accidents. As I continue my deep dive into Konecranes, I’m eager to learn more about the amazing work being done and collaborate with all of you to drive our technology forward. Thanks for the warm welcome. 🙏 #konecranes #technology #innovation
